We were very excited recently to discover this new 1976 view of the Wreck Bar. The 70s took its toll, especially with those swag lights:

It probably should be noted on this thread that The Castaways was designed by the same architect who designed the Mai-Kai, Charles McKirahan. It seems like most everything we love about Modern South Florida sprang from his mind: the Sea Shore resort, Ireland's Inn, the Bay Harbor Continental, etc. Too many of them gone! Who's got the time machine this week?

Nice stuff, DC. The late 60s / early 70s party til 5am has taken a toll on the old Wreck Bar -- you can tell they even had to reupholster all the bar stools. And it looks like Liberace was put in charge of the decor!

I just found this today at a local antique store. My first guess was a long match stick box but it is absent of a strike so that's not it. Maybe a box for a hankie? I had to get it of course!! I was donating some items so the owner gave it to me for free!!
